Hello friends.
Another week passed by! My highlights of the week were the German CDK Happy Hour Meetup on Wednesday where an AWS CDK project was presented which leverages AWS ECS with Blue/Green deployments. That is super exciting as that is not natively supported by ECS CloudFormation at all. Another highlight was that I helped a friend move house and carrying furniture around like that is a good workout :).
In this weekly newsletter, I write a summary of posts that got my attention during the week. I center around topics AWS, DevOps, Architecture, AWS CDK, Serverless, Data Engineering, Data Analytics and much more.
